• Lansing is the capital of Michigan, but only the sixth-largest city in the state. There is a host of cultural attractions, including the State Capitol, numerous museums and galleries, boutique shopping and restaurants. Tours are available of the stunning, historic Capitol Building, which was completed in 1879 and was designed by Elijah E. Myers, and helped lead to his reputation as one of the most-respected architects of capitol buildings.
• Detroit is the largest city in Michigan and perhaps most famous for being the home to Ford. The Henry Ford Museum is located about 20 minutes outside the city in Dearborn. The museum and Greenfield Village show the history of Henry Ford and his times: take a locomotive tour round the village or look in a reconstructed version of Ford’s home. A display of motorcars throughout the ages appeals to adults and children.
• As well as four of the five Great Lakes, Michigan also has more than 11,000 small lakes within the state, so it is naturally a great spot for watersports. Boating, canoeing and kayaking are all popular; more unusually, ice boating takes place in the winter months.
• The Mackinac Bridge connects the lower and upper peninsulas of Michigan and is one of the longest suspensions bridges in the world. Nicknamed the “Mighty Mac” it covers five miles and was erected in 1957 after many years of planning and building. The annual bridge walk takes place in September of every year. A crowd sets off at about 7am from the north end and finishes in Mackinaw City on the south side.
• Skiing, snowboarding and snowmobiling are all popular in the winter months. The Crystal Mountain Resort has 45 runs for ski and snowboard as well as terrain parks and a half pipe.
